Here are somesigns to tell you if your friend is a true friend:Always honest.Honesty is important to keep a relationship alive. A true friend always tells you the truth. It may be hardsometimes but lying can destroy a friendship. It is important that your friend speaks honestly and nevermakes up stories.There are always periods in your life when you have problems or difficulties. A true friend will always havetime to listen to your problems and give advice. It may not be able to offer a solution to your problems but thefact that your friend made time to listen is a sign he/she cares for you.Your friend is not a true friend ifhe/she can never make time for you when you are in trouble. You also need to be reasonable and acceptthat your friend also has other things to do so he/she cant always listen immediately to your problems.Always respectful(尊敬的).A true friend will always respect your opinion no matter whether he/she agrees or not. Your true friend maydisagree but never insists that he/she is correct.Always understanding.It is possible that some problems will arise between you and your friend. A true friend will always beforgiving(体谅的)and understanding even if it isnt his/her fault. We are all different people and we all makemistakes.

Whats the authors purpose in writing this passage?ATo teach us how to make true friendsBTo find out how long a friendship can last.CTo introduce his experience in making friends.DTo tell us how to find out if a friend is a true friend.CDoes this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, you are communicating quite fluently, but: Listening is STILL a problem! First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening comprehension is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. The most important thing is to listen as often as possible. The first step is to find listening resources. The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from RealM. The RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station.Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated (懊恼) by limited understanding. What should you do?Here is some of the advice I give my students:Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything.Stay relaxed when you do not understand even if you continue not to understand for a long time.Do not translate what you hear into your native language.Listen for the general idea of the conversation. Dont concentrate on detail until you have understood the main ideas.I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didnt understand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind. This method usually resulted in confusion. Then, after the first six months, I discovered two very important facts. Firstly, translating creates a wall between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that even if I didnt pay much attention, I could usually understand what the speaker had said.29. The best way to improve our listening is to _.A. practise as much as possibleB. find as many listening resources as possibleC. use the Internet like a radio stationD. speak naturally and read as much as possible30. Which of the following is a good habit when listening?A. Try to understand everything.B. Try to get the main ideas.C. Pay much attention to details.D. Translate each word in your mind.31. The underlined part “a wall” in the last paragraph refers to “_”.A. a communication barrier (障碍)B. culture shockC. language understandingD. a little misunderstandingDThere are several ways from which to choose for you to keep your kids safe in your neighborhood. But thefirst step to keeping your child safe in your neighborhood is to know your neighbors.Knowing your neighbors can save you a lot of worry. It lets you know that the car that has just driven downthe street belongs to “the yellow house on the corner”, or the truck that has just driven by the playgroundlooks unfamiliar, but the guy in the passenger seat resides two doors down. Its these simple things thatkeep you from going out of your mind whenever you see someone driving by where children are playing.But you shouldnt just know what they look like. The next step is to know them well. What do they do? How dothey act? You might be OK with them driving by the playground since they live in the neighborhood, but areyou OK with them being on the playground? Knowing your neighbors solves several things. First you find outwhat kind of people they are. This helps you know if you should let your child go out in an area that theygather. Lets face it: you dont want your child to play around people or peoples children that curse(咒骂)orhit each other. Sometimes you have to protect your child against your own neighbors.Knowing them also makes them know you. Being neighbors is an interesting thing. You might not like them orhave the same views as them, but we all usually protect those that we consider our own. If you know yourneighbors, they know you. They are more likely to look after the child of the nice lady down the street in thebrick(砖)house, than the people, in the house on the corner, that no one ever sees.32. This passage is mainly to tell us_.Ahow to keep your child safe in the neighborhoodBhow to set a good example to your neighborsChow to get along with your neighborsDhow to teach your child to protect himself33. If someone resides two doors down, he_.Astudies at the same school with your kidBoften comes to the neighborhood to offer helpClives in the same neighborhood as youDlikes driving the truck around the neighborhood34. The underlined phrase “going out of your mind” in Paragraph 2 probably means_.Abecoming very excited Bbecoming very worriedCbecoming very disappointed Dbecoming very relaxed35. From the third paragraph we can know that_.Ait is important for you to be polite to your neighborsBpeople in the same neighborhood are quite differentCpeople like enjoying themselves on the playgroundDknowing your neighbors helps to keep your kids safe第二节：（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to become a better readerLanguage and literacy(读写能力) are among humansgreatest inventions.
